Hi John,
I think you're right about the fold-back. (I think you meant the finals, not
the front-end) Having used my Omni Six Plus for 18 years, I should know for
sure, but I don't.
As far as ease of operation, in my opinion it's perfect, but I'm a tad biased.
HI HI.
I hope your buddies enjoy using it.
Joe, K8MP

Subject: [TenTec] Opinions sought re OMNI VI
I'm in residence at a retirement community and a few of us are setting up a
ham club. Discussions are underway as to what antenna to install in the
rafters of a building with the idea of operating perhaps 80-10 meters.
Whatever antenna the club chooses, I'm thinking an OMNI VI Plus that I own
would be a good choice as a donation for the club station. It's simple to
operate and the front end does not fold back power right away when the SWR
rises above 2:1. Am I right?
Looking for a rig as close to foolproof as possible.
73,
John, W3ULS
